About
Synopsis
Her Love Boils Bathwater (湯を沸かすほどの熱い愛, 2016) is a Japanese drama you can watch online on iFILM. Written and directed by Ryota Nakano, the film stars Rie Miyazawa as Futaba, a woman who receives a terminal diagnosis and decides to spend her remaining time setting things right.
That means tracking down her absent husband, reopening the family bathhouse they abandoned years ago, and pushing her bullied daughter Azumi — played by Hana Sugisaki — to stop accepting defeat. At 125 minutes the film earns every one of them; it builds its emotion through action, not speeches. Nakano took home the Japan Academy Prize for directing.
